Abstract

To meet the food requirement of the growing population, there is a constant need to increase agricultural production, which may occur through increasing the area under cultivation and improving the yields. The first way is argued to be limited particularly in the long run, due to limitations such as the scarcity of land, water and other resources. The most feasible strategy is, therefore, improving the PRODUCTIVITY OF INPUTS.The present study aimed to measure the productivity of the main production factors in order. to find the best ways for RESOURCE ALLOCATION. Data was collected through questionnaire interviews with 95 SUGAR BEET producers in Hamedan. The polynominal function method was used to evaluate the productivity of major inputs in different production unitsThe results showed that the number of irrigation water applications was close to, and the use of manure and manpower were higher than the optimum.Also about 67.1% of the sample farmers ranked at the third level of the production function and, farmers with larger farm holdings made a more optimum use of the inputs compared to small farmers. The only input used by large farmers in excess of the OPTIMUM LEVEL being chemical fertilizer (P), with a negative marginal productivity in 67.7% of the sample population.
